TFL Talkin' Trucks

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! On this episode of TFL Talkin’ Trucks, Andre and Kase go hands-on with two very different midsize pickups: the hardcore GMC Canyon AT4X and the adventure-ready Honda Ridgeline TrailSport. Both are built for dirt, snow, and trail duty—but one uses a traditional 4x4 system while the other relies on AWD. So what’s the real-world difference?The guys take both trucks out to put their drivetrains to the test, breaking down how 4WD with low range compares to a torque-vectoring AWD system when the terrain gets tough. They talk articulation, traction control, ground clearance, and what actually matters when you leave the pavement behind. Is the Ridgeline’s AWD enough for most buyers, or does the Canyon’s locking diffs and low range make it the clear choice for serious off-roading?( http://www.patreon.com/tflcar ) Visit our Patreon page to support the TFL team!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
